About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Laugh at Danger and Break All The Rules! Except at your house, of course.

ABOUT ME

Recent Landscape Architecture graduate from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. I'm currently traveling a lot and applying for jobs, but I still have the sweet garage in SLO with excellent couch space. I'd love to show people SLO, one of the best places anywhere!

PHILOSOPHY

I am here to enjoy everything I can on Earth while I can, and to help everyone else do the same. I'm hoping, through landscape architecture, that I can make that happen by creating outdoor spaces that make people want to get off their couch and run around outside.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love everything about Europe - except the cost. I'd like to see everywhere I can, for as little as I can, and when I return home to California I'd like to help others do the same.

Interests

I like too many things to have ever gotten any good at them - I am a skateboarder, snowboarder, cross country runner, kayaker; I'm learning guitar (slowly) and I just got a moped so I'm learning all about that.

Favorite thing ever? Probably live music. The smaller the venue and the more random of a band, the better. I'm not into going to giant stadiums and paying a hundred bucks to sit a mile away. I regrettably have missed some shows I should have gone to though because no one would come with me, but I've recently decided I won't let that stop me. It's too loud to talk to your friends anyway.
